Abstract: A heat pump system (12) has a separate outdoor coil (43) which is mounted below the
primary outdoor coil (21) and connected in parallel with it by valves (44,45). On system start up
in the heating mode, the inlet (44) of the auxiliary coil (43) is closed, and the outlet (45) is opened so
that compressor vacuum will boil off the more volatile, high pressure components
thus filling the system. The outlet valve (45) is then closed trapping the low pressure
component in the auxiliary coil (43). In a second embodiment, the accumulator (34) is utilized
to assist the auxiliary coil (43) in vacuum separation of the refrigerant blend. Variants
include blocking flow through the expansion valve (22) on start up.

Abstract: The sheets which are outputted from a printing device are
stacked in an exchangeable cassette mounted on an input unit in
successive order as they are printed. An identifying label on
the cassette is read by a reader and stored in a central controller.
An address of each document, and preferably of each
page of each document, is stored in the controller in successive
order and associated with the label signal as the documents are
stacked. An output unit for picking up the individual documents
is associated with a finishing machine. A full cassette is introduced
into the output unit. A second reader on the output
unit reads the label on the cassette that has been placed into
the output unit. The second sensor is connected to the controller.
The finishing machine is controlled by the controller in
response to the label signal and the address signals of the
documents.
